Eventful Weekend :D

This weekend John and I went to Sioux Falls since Friday was our 2 year anniversary! :D It was so fun. Definitely a win sort of weekend.

We left town on Friday early enough to get there just in time to eat dinner at Olive Garden. That was lovely :)

Then Saturday was excellent. We woke up and went to the Sertoma Butterfly House first. They had so many of the huge blue ones this year. They had also added a mini aquarium since I was last there and I thought it was very nice because the fish were so lively and colorful. John was kind of afraid of the butterflies flying around is face though.. hehe :3

After we were done there we went to the Century Theater to see The Raven, which was a really awesome movie in my opinion. The theater was so cool thought because you could get so much more in the concessions than you can at Carmike where I work. We got a hotdog and pretzel bites. I just thought the whole thing was cool. It was also the first time I have been carded for a movie :/

Then we decided we wanted to go to the zoo. It was pleasant. Pretty much all of the animals were out and about. I think my favorite was the anteater that we saw tromping around and sniffing. That was really cool because I don't think I've ever seen one of thoes. And then a peacock put on a very nice display for us. This tiger came really close to the cage and I managed to get several decent pictures of him. He decided that he was going to start sizing up John after a while so it was a good thing he was in a cage.

John totally fell in love with one of the little monkeys so I took a video of one. It was so cute. And the lemurs up top there were pretty awesome. I got a video of those too.

In between all of those things we managed to go to the mall and the pet store and Barnes and Noble of course. We also went to Poppy's Popcorn which has amazing flavored popcorn, some drizzled in chocolate :) I got cinnamon roll, chocolate cherry, mint chocolate, and puppy chow flavors, plus one of those little marshmellow sticky popcorn balls with m&ms in it.

Saturday night we went to eat at Hu Hot which is always good. If you haven't eaten there and like Mongolian food you should definitely check it out. It's a fun atmostphere.

My weekend was amazing. This boy has surely treated me to a ton of fun. I love him :)

So now we are home and I just got done typing a 500 word essay for this scholarship I'm applying for so hopefully I did it justice. Fingers crossed.
